Go to Tools | Add-ons | Plugins and disable SpiralFrog. This company went out of business in 2009 and it's servers have ceased to function. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpiralFrog

If the problem persists, please try running Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
